in 1913, there was no TV or radio.
It was either sing-along with the piano or with the Victrola.
If you were rich, you could afford a player piano - but still had to supply the leg power to pump it, unless you were filthy-rich and had electricitry too.
I remember seeing in the basement an old Edison player & cylinders that a great- great- great- grandparent brought with them from Europe pre -1890.
